         ACS NSW AISIG - Artificial Intelligence - Monthly Meeting

Date:     Wednesday 29th August 2001.

Time:     6:30pm till 8:00pm & dinner afterwards.

Topic:     Designing and Modelling Autonomous Agents Systematically: 
                     the Deep Behaviour Projection Framework.

 In this talk we attempt to formally define various types of 
 behaviour-based agent architectures and encapsulate them in 
 a hierarchical framework. Then we present a new design 
 approach, Deep Behaviour Projection (DBP), aimed at multi-agent
 systems that include an environment simulator and agents capable
 of performing concurrent actions. The developed framework is 
 capable of capturing some desirable properties of situated and 
 tactical agents, such as robustness, real-time response and 
 adaptive coordination. In other words, it enables not only 
 reactive reasoning about immediate surroundings in localised 
 situations, but pro-active reasoning about composite goal-oriented
 actions as well. The framework allows designers to experiment 
 with and discover new different strategies achieving given 
 objectives. 

 Most recently, the DBP framework has been used for design and 
 development of a commercial multi-agent system for networked 
 multimedia appliances, and in the RoboCup Simulation domain.
